C13 and O18 compositions in some fresh-water carbonates associated with ultramafic rocks and serpentinites: Western United States
J. R. O’Neil, I. Barnes
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 687-697
All carbonates associated with the ultramafic rocks and serpentinites of the western United States are shown by their stable isotope ratios to be of near-surface, low-temperature origin. These include vein materials that have been previously classified as hydrothermal. New laboratory and natural data...
Calcium-magnesium carbonate solid solutions from Holocene conglomerate cements and travertines in the Coast Range of California
I. Barnes, J. R. O’Neil
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 699-718
Two calcium-magnesium carbonate solid solutions form Holocene travertines and conglomerate cements in fresh water stream channels of the Coast Range of California. Calcite does not yield the {015} diffraction maximum. The {006} diffraction maximum is lacking over most of the range of composition...
Thermoluminescence of Apollo 12 lunar samples
Richard R. Doell, G. Brent Dalrymple
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (10) 357-360
Thermoluminescence (TL) glow curve and decay characteristics of Apollo 12 fines and soil samples are similar to those from Apollo 11. Interpretation of the results from the core sample is difficult because of inadequate sample, spacing, but it appears that the part...
Selenography and selenodesy with Apollo whole-disk lunar photographs I. Selenography
D.W.G. Arthur
1971, Icarus (14) 388-418
The Apollo whole-disk lunar photographs, with spacecraft lunar nadirs about 70° from the center of mean face, have considerable selenodetic potential provided that the requirements of resolution and precision can be met. Uncertainties in the internal camera geometry degrade the precision and make...
Geological provinces of the near side of the moon
J.F. McCauley, D.E. Wilhelms
1971, Icarus (15) 363-367
Systematic geologic mapping of the near side of the Moon has provided the basis for defining and delineating the major geological provinces of the near side. From the nature of the provinces and their distribution patterns a general historical sequence evolves. Five main...
Nickel in high-alumina basalts
C. E. Hedge
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 522-524
New analyses of high-alumina basalts reveal an average nickel content higher than previously indicated. Ni in high-alumina basalts correlates with magnesium in the same way as it does in other basalt types. There is therefore no reason, based on Ni contents, to hypothesize...
On the origin of lunar soil 12033
P.A. Beadecker, F. Cuttitta, H. J. Rose Jr., R. Schaudy, J. T. Wasson
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (10) 361-364
The lunar soil 12033 is compositionally distinctly different from both the local rocks at the Apollo 12 site and other lunar samples. It must be a recent deposit, else it would not have retained its identity. It contains a meteoritic component which...
A general evaluation of the frequency distribution of clay and associated minerals in the alluvial soils of Ceylon
J.W. Herath, R.W. Grimshaw
1971, Geoderma (5) 119-130
Clay mineral analyses were made of several alluvial clay materials from Ceylon. These studies show that the soil materials can be divided into 3 clay mineral provinces on the basis of the frequency distribution of...
Salmonid viruses: Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus
K. Wolf, M. C. Quimby
1971, Archiv Fur Die Gesamte Virusforschung (34) 144-156
Epizootics occurred among young trout in France, and the behavior and symptoms suggested infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) virus. Specimens preserved in glycerol were sent to the U.S.A. for virological examination. Virus was isolated from four of five lots, but neutralization with antiserum against ATCC VR299 strain IPN virus was incomplete....

Periodic water- and air-temperature records for Utah streams, 1966-70
G.L. Whitaker
1971, Utah Basic-Data Release 22
Since 1967, all Geological Survey hydrographers have been instructed to observe and record the water and air temperatures at times when water-discharge measurements were being made at stream-gaging stations in Utah. The frequency of these observations generally varies from I to 5 weeks, depending upon the magnitude of the stream...

A procedure for testing the antigenicity of vaccines for immunization of fish against Furunculosis
Jamieson E. Holway, G.W. Klontz
1971, Progressive Fish-Culturist 42-44
Furnunculosis, a bacterial disease caused by Aeromonas salmonicida, is potentially one of the most devastating diseases in trout and salmon hatcheries. The disease may be controlled by three methods. The most frequently used method of control has been drug therapy. Unfortunately, the bacteria often develop resistance to the...
A decade of international cooperation brings a standard seismic point of view
H. S Whitcomb Jr.
1971, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (3) 16-19
Whether in a castle in Italy, a police station in Iceland, o an abandoned gold mine in Australia, the sensitive instruments in the Worldwide Seismograph Network send a steady flow of standard earthquake records to the geophysical scientific community. They provide the raw data that make possible very precise earthquake...
Some blood chemistry values for the juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch)
Gary Wedemeyer, K. Chatterton
1971, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada 606-608
Overlapping Gaussian distribution curves were resolved into normal ranges for 1800 clinical test values obtained from caudal arterial blood or plasma of more than 1000 juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) held under defined conditions of diet and temperature. Estimated normal blood chemistry ranges were bicarbonate, 9.5–12.6 mEq/liter; blood urea nitrogen (BUN),...
Results from the apollo-12 passive seismic experiment
G. Latham
1971, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (3) 4-9
The objective of the passive seismic experiment is to measure vibrations of the lunar surface produced by all natural and artificial sources of seismic energy and to use these data to deduce the internal structure and composition of the moon, the nature of forces which may cause deformation of the...
